Newark, NJ – The New Jersey Devils today re-signed goaltender Cory Schneider to a new multi-year contract. The announcement was made by Devils’ President/General Manager Lou Lamoriello. As per club policy, no further terms were disclosed.

“With today’s signing, we have solidified our goaltending for the present and the future,” said Lamoriello. “Cory demonstrated throughout the year what he could bring to our organization, both on and off the ice.“

Lamoriello would not confirm 7 years at $6 million per, but that appears ti be the number.

143 games in to his career with 2.12 GPA and 9.25% save percentage. Not sure he’s unproven; that being said 7 years is a long time for a goalie. Very few goalies manage to keep their stats up over time. Remember Mason? Neither do I.
